Nash had an average of 12 per until his 5th year when t jumped to 18.
Dirk was his third year before he really got it together.
Scottie Pippen was 4th year.
Richard Hamilton never hit a per of 18 till his 4th year.

Dirk, Scottie and Rip all showed significant improvement in PER from their rookie seasons to each of their second, third and fourth seasons. Dirk had a PER of 22.8 at the age of 22 and a PER of 24.1 at the age of 23 (Bargnani's age).

Nash is a special case. He's definitely one true example of a late bloomer, but if we're going to use Nash as an example of why Bargnani (and Colangelo) should be given a longer leash, that seems pretty unrealistic to me. I stand by my statement that if Bargnani is healthy for the first 20 games of this season, we should get a good indication of his true upside.

Bosh is taken for granted,for sure.He's a 20+PPG/10APG all-star player that has gotten better as a player/leader year by year.Not only that he's a great guy that likes playing in Toronto and hates losing and wants to win here.

He's one of the best PF in the League/Eastern Conference.And now that BC has begun to surround him with better players,he will be that much better.

Snootchie: I don't like you either. You just watch yourself. We're wanted men. I have the death sentence on twelve Raptor Boards.

Scotty: I'll be careful, I have my very own Raptor Blog, didn't ya know, it's called.......

Interupting, the snootch lays down the law!!!

Snootchie: You'll be dead!

Doc James Naismith:[intervening, like always] This little one's not worth the effort. Now come, let me get you something.

[Snootchie shoves Scotty across the room and pulls out a stick of Cherry Lip blaster]

Fancy Lad: No Lip blaster! No Lip blaster!

[Doc pulls out and ignites his Admin power trip-sabre. In a flash, Snootch and his Devilishly handsome companion, Superjudge, are on the floor with a slashed torso and a severed arm respectively. Ultimately, the only ones to benefit are those who may be looking to play a little ball with Snootch and Superjudge, as we all know in order to stop them, you must remove Snootchie's feet, and take away Superjudge's right hand]

Thats great.

Only thing that isnt quite true is that I carry Watermellon Lip Blaster, not cherry.

Bosh is a great guy, great player, and he is showing in the olympics that he can trully defend if he has some help. BUT people have rights to be a little pissed after two absolutely terrible playoff performances.
With Oneil on his side there wont be any more excuses. This should be Boshs year.
